Job description

An excellent opportunity for a bright, personable and motivated individual looking to build a career in a professional corporate environment.

We are seeking a Junior Receptionist to join a highly regarded organisation in Canberra. This is a front-of-house role where professionalism, presentation and a genuinely welcoming personality are just as important as administrative skills.

• Confidence using computers and learning new systems
• Initiative, reliability and a willingness to learn
• Discretion and respect for confidentiality
• A genuine interest in developing a career in a corporate environment

Previous reception, administration, customer service or hospitality experience would be advantageous, but attitude and potential are more important than an extensive résumé.

You might be working in a hotel, premium retail environment or hospitality venue and looking for your first opportunity in the corporate world.

Why consider this opportunity?
